Here's to hoping the sun will reach all my fellow liveaboards suffering from cabin fever soon

Thanks!
Hope so!
It's been raining in the UK forever. I've got the reverse of a leaky bucket in the cockpit, every time I look at it there's more water in it than before!
Enough, once the cheap winter marina deals run out at the end of the month Spain it is!

I understand stand Lizzy, while it has been a mild winter for us this year. The sun is getting high enough that it can throw some heat now. We are close to double digits, oh so close! It does trigger a big smile to feel that warmth on my face.
Only another 6 weeks or so until the ice is off the water:-)

Lizzy Belle I completely understand. We've had a tough winter here too in Southern California. Last week it rained for part of a day, mostly at night, and there was one day it almost didn't break 70 degrees Fahrenheit. But it spring now and things are looking up. No more cabin fever for a while.

On the other side of the pond (Ottawa), we too are having fantastic weather. I rode my motorcycle to work yesterday for the first time since December. I got some funny looks with snow banks over my head, but I wasn't the only bike on the road.
